Embodiment
A reflecting surface that the present invention includes a pedestal, a plurality of regular hexagon reflectings surface unit 1 composition is (in the large radio astronomical telescope field, present employed reflecting surface unit is regular hexagon reflecting surface unit), because reflecting surface unit 1 be regular hexagon, thus any one reflecting surface unit all with common summit 4, other reflecting surface unit; Also contain guiding constraint side chain and many active branched chain of equating with the reflecting surface number of unit.Active branched chain is positioned at 4 belows, summit on the reflecting surface, and there is an active branched chain on a summit at interval, active branched chain comprises an initiatively telescopic drive bar 6, a supporting seat 5,3 support bars 3, each support bar 3 two ends connects ball pivot 2, because adjacent reflecting surface unit is common summit, therefore, 3 support bars on supporting 3 are connected with 3 reflecting surface unit 1 of supporting seat 5 and top by ball pivot 2.Initiatively telescopic drive bar 6 drives top 3 adjacent reflecting surface unit 1 simultaneously by supporting seat 5, support bar 3, ball pivot 2, like this, originally each reflecting surface unit needs 3 telescopic drive inputs at least, promptly needs 3 motors to control its pose, and the motor number is 3 times of cell block number.Owing to adopted common driving, a motor of each below, summit can drive input for 3 reflectings surface provide simultaneously now, and it is the same with the number of reflecting surface cell block that the number of required motor reduces to substantially, is 1/3 when not adopting common the driving.
The guiding constraint side chain comprises a Hooke's hinge 9, a driven expansion link 8, Hooke's hinge 9 one ends and reflecting surface unit 1 are consolidated, one end concrete mutually of the other end and driven expansion link 8, the other end of driven expansion link 8 and pedestal 7 are consolidated, and driven expansion link has been limited the rotation around a chain axis (the z axle among Fig. 2).
In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, introduce structure of the present invention and principle of work in detail.
Fig. 1 is the general illustration of parallel mechanism array of the present invention: it comprises some reflectings surface unit 1, and reflecting surface unit 1 is a regular hexagon, and then three reflecting surface unit 1 are adjacent one another are, has a summit 4.
As shown in Figure 2, there is a guiding constraint side chain each 1 below, reflecting surface unit, comprise a Hooke's hinge 9, a driven expansion link 8, Hooke's hinge 9 one ends and reflecting surface unit 1 are consolidated, one end concrete mutually of the other end and driven expansion link 8, the other end of driven expansion link 8 and pedestal 7 are consolidated, and driven expansion link 8 has been limited the rotation around a chain axis z.
Below the summit 4 of three regular hexagon reflecting surface unit adjacent one another are, an active branched chain is arranged, it comprises an initiatively telescopic drive bar 6, a supporting seat 5,6 ball pivots 2, three support bars 3, initiatively an end and the supporting seat 5 of telescopic drive bar are consolidated, and the other end and pedestal 7 are consolidated, support bar one end is connected with supporting seat by ball pivot 2, and the other end also is connected with the reflecting surface unit by ball pivot 2.Then the strong point that connects of each ball pivot on reflecting surface is all by the strong point shared supporting seat of support bar with contiguous 2 reflecting surface unit, just is coupled by ball pivot, support bar, supporting seat between so any reflecting surface unit and the reflecting surface unit that closes on every side.
When carrying out match control, calculate the initiatively stroke of telescopic drive bar 6, initiatively the telescopic drive bar is by supporting seat 5, support bar 3, and the ball pivot 2 at support bar two ends drives three adjacent reflecting surface unit 1 simultaneously, for each reflecting surface unit, when three initiatively the stroke of expansion link changes, driven the change of three supporting seats that link to each other with them and the position of three ball pivots that are connected with the reflecting surface unit, and then caused reflecting surface cell position and attitude to become thereupon.The reflecting surface unit drives driven expansion link 8 motions by Hooke's hinge 9, because driven expansion link 8 lower ends and pedestal concrete mutually, this has just limited the rotation of reflecting surface unit around the z axle, Hooke's hinge only allows the reflecting surface unit to rotate around x, y axle, as shown in Figure 2, x, y axle are two turning axles of Hooke's hinge, xoy plane and reflecting surface unit 1 plane parallel, the z axle is the axis direction of driven expansion link perpendicular to the reflecting surface unit.When all active telescopic drive bars reached the stroke of calculating, parallel mechanism array had just been finished and has been realized the match campaign of rotation parabolic reflector, thereby satisfied the initiatively reflecting surface requirement of surface fitting on a large scale of big telescope.
